I think that Mr. Grizzly is pointing out that one special character that is not related to Onitama, Sheriff, Spoils of War... ;)

There are other surprises through out the site. More than just our mysterious red robed friend on the front page. I'd recommend keeping your MW glasses on  :)

What happened to the organized play story material?

Has "Defend Me" (Formation) been spoiled yet?

Has that Griffin (with the festive hat) appeared before?

And is the crystal ball in a Dice Towers Essentials game, or might it be an upcoming MW card?

Just found a way to view the full image from the new web store, including the top row...

Art for several new mages, potentially, in this image!!
I think I see 6 new mages, including the male Arena Forcemaster.

If you don't see a female dark elf below the Arraxian Crown Warlock near the right edge, you might want to save the image and load it in another app.

Based on how new mages are placed I think that 3 new mages are for Academy (druid, necromancer and Academy exclusive new mage) and 4 for Arena (alternate Wizard and Forcemaster, two brand new mages, frost based and dark elf).
It's seems that Arena focuses on politics of main continent but Sistarra Academy has students from all over the world (at least Kumanjaro).

Oh yes. I've seen that female Wizard art so many times I forgot to count her as net-new (but somehow counted the male Forcemaster).

Based on location within the image, there would appear to be a male "Johktari" Druid and male "Dsjer-Tet" mage (Necromancer?), along with the previously discussed new female "assassin" (?), on the Academy side. But these two new reveals look a little mature for Academy... Could they be Arena mages?

The female Wizard and male Forcemaster have been anticipated for Arena for a very long time. The silver-haired male with glowing eyes is new, though, and isn't obviously giving away his school or mage type. His armour is reminiscent of the dragon-like Arch-mage that has been floating around for over a year. But given the absence of the known Arch-mage art, perhaps this more humanoid male is replacing the dragon in that role (?).

And then there's the new dark elf mage. It isn't clear to me which school or mage type she belongs to. The colour scheme could indicate a Necromancer in training... and she appears to be young enough to be an Academy mage, which draws into question whether the "Johktari" Druid and "Tsjer-Tet" Necromancer belong to Academy, or if they're location within the image is strategically chosen to throw us off. For example, I could imagine the male Druid and male Dsjer-Tet mage belong to Arena (e.g. a future Johktari vs Dsjer-Tet alt-mage expansion), and this dark elf and the human "assassin" being Academy mages.

Nobody ever mentions the arena wizard looks ancient compared to the other arena mages. Is arcane honestly so hard to master it takes 50 plus years to get to the level of a 30 something year old Beast Master?
